The Origin of Venice A Brief Introduction to the Origin of Venice
1, the origin of Venice is not recorded in historical documents. Some historians cite reliable evidence that the early population was refugees from Roman cities, who came from Padua, Aquilia, Altino and Concordia (now Port Gruaro) to escape the German attack.

2. Venice is a city in northeast Italy and an important port on the northwest coast of Venice Bay in Adriatic Sea. The population ranges from 340,000 to 30,000 (statistics show that the permanent population of Venice in 1957 was17,400,000, while the total permanent population announced in June 2009 was less than 60,000, reaching the lowest level in history).

3. Venice consists of 1 18 small islands, which are connected by 180 waterways and 378 bridges. It is called "Water City". It was built in 452 AD. In the eighth century, it was the trade center of the Adriatic Sea. A city republic was established in the 10th century and was one of the most prosperous trade centers in the Mediterranean in the Middle Ages.

4. The floating city of Venice is the essence of Renaissance. It is the only city in the world without cars, and there are scenic spots such as Phoenix Opera House, Bridge of Sighs, St. Kyle Square and so on.
